(Ok so, I haven't written for almost a year, but OMG the next chapter!)

As Videl curled over Gohan's suffering body, Karukono and Vegeta still watched from a safe distance away. When Karukono had sensed Videl nearing them her heart had jumped and ever since she had watched Videl with an uninterrupted gaze. She could feel the pain stabbing at her daughters' heart. The red eyed Gohan still lingered above the battle ground, completely idle. "What is he doing?" Karukono whispered. Vegeta glanced over at her and then over to where the red eyed Gohan hovered. "I have no idea…" Vegeta trailed off.

"I feel like a child watching a movie. People are struggling for their lives and we are sitting here watching." Karukono protested.

"What? Like you have any reason to care whether either of those two live or die." Vegeta smirked.

Karukono's eyes softened. "Yes. I do…" She thought to her self but did not dare say aloud.

Gohan's vision was blurry and his breath was short and quick. He tried to focus his eyes on Videl but they refused to cooperate. He had to concentrate just to keep them from rolling back into his head. He felt Videl's hand touch his arm but he had missed the movement. Slowly Videl leaned down and kissed his lips. Gohan's head was throbbing so bad he hardly knew what was happening. He felt his lips become cool, then cold. They grew colder and colder and yet somehow it wasn't cold in that he wanted to pull away, it was….refreshing. Gohan felt the coldness spill around his entire body. He could see a slight blue energy emitting from Videl. Finally Videl pulled away and leaned back up. She watched as his cuts and wounds were incased in ice and disappeared. Gohan felt a sharp coldness in his head and suddenly the throbbing pain had stopped. He felt revitalized and sat up without realizing it. Gohan looked over at Videl with wide eyes.

"What did you…?" Gohan wondered more than asked.

The red eyed Gohan landed on the ground just beside Videl. She didn't look up. The red eyed Gohan made a slight at this motion of hers and made his dissatisfaction clear by kicking Gohan in the side. Well, he tried to anyway. Halfway through the kick his foot had been halted in mid air, as if an invisible wall stood between his foot and its target.

"You can't hurt him now." Videl stated plainly.

"What's that supposed to mean? What did you do?" The red eyed Gohan snarled.

Videl slowly stood up and stared the red eyed Gohan in the face. Red eyed Gohan's eyes twitched ever so slightly at the sight of eyes with the appearance of ice within them. Her stare was cold, not in the metaphorical sense, but the literal. He could feel a cold aura seeping from her body. She stood perfectly still, her gaze piercing into him with a feeling that made, even he, uneasy. Gohan stood up and stood beside Videl. His breath could be seen even in the heat of the environment. His stare had turned just as icy as Videl's.

"What's going on here...?" Red eyed Gohan whispered.

For a brief moment fear rushed through him like a flame at the sight of this unknown force in front of him, but soon he smirked. So what if they are all weird now, I can still strangle the life from them whenever I want. Red eye Gohan told himself. He swung his arm to punch the son-of-a-bitch weaker half in the face but again he was stopped by an unseen barrier. He scowled and started to pull back his arm…but it didn't move…it was stuck. With his free hand he grabbed the arm seemingly stuck suspended in air and tugged. Nothing happened. He glanced down at his arm and saw ice starting to crawl up his arm. He could feel the ice cover and stop his veins. Red eyed Gohan made a twisted face of pain and tried desperately to scrape the ice from him. Soon the ice covered his entire arm and made its way to his torso, neck, and head. He glared at Gohan in anger and fear. He felt his brain slowly freeze and slowly stop working, it was a sluggish movement that allowed him to feel the most amount of pain imaginable, to be awake and feel as each system fades and then dies.

His body wouldn't move. His mind could no longer piece together coherent thoughts. He could feel himself dying and new just when it was about to….and he was gone. The red eyes faded from his body and were nothing but white. His body became transparent and dissipated into the air in a red mist which then lunged its self into Gohan's body, causing him to be pushed back. Videl ran to his side but he ushered her away.

"I'm fine; I can keep him under control." Gohan assured her.

"But…are you sure? Doesn't it scare you to have that thing inside of you?" Videl worried.

"It's not a thing. That 'it' is me. And even though it caused me to do horrible things, it is something I must take responsibility for. If it is inside of me I will be sure it will never kill again."

Videl lowered her head and nodded softly.

Karukono and Vegeta walked up to them slowly, Karukono assisting Vegeta in his movement. She looked at Videl and smiled softly, the way a parent did to tell their child they were proud. Videl smiled back, the ice from her eyes slowly faded and the coldness, emitting from her, thinned and vanished, as it did for Gohan as well.

"Is that it? Is everything back to normal now?" Videl asked hopefully.

Gohan's eyes deepened. "Not yet…Piccolo…my father and mother…and Goten…their all…dead."

Videl's eyes widened and her body sunk with sadness.

"Not to mention I am still without my powers." Karukono reminded everyone.

Gohan sighed. "Yeah…yeah I know. But do we have to do that now? I'd like to take a nap…"
